Hey, it beats Ball-Yang
I’m as into neologisms and snarky made up corporate names as the next guy, but “Ya-Bing!” and “Micro-Hoo!” both suck. Neither speaks to the real mission or importance or even personality of this deal, ya know?
But yes, we do need a new shorthand. I think the word we’re all looking for today is “Irrelevansoft.”

Food for section two of the John Muir Trail. I’ll pick this up at Tuolumne Meadows. This will take us to Vermillion Valley Resort, 70 miles south. We get our final resupply at Vermillion, which we’ll take another 110 miles.

Jocks and Socks!
Wow! Arrington just published @ev’s sweaty jock from his morning workout! Sure, it was swiped from his gym locker but it’s totes cool because it’s less embarrassing than his socks*.
